We're Gaining

Our appt. today went well. They checked on the measurements of both the bone structures and internal organs for each baby (all looks healthy). They also said that now that I am in the third trimester, the weight is much more of a guesstimate because space is becoming a premium. Baby A is still very low, and therefore hard to measure. Here are the estimates:Baby A/girl: 2 pounds 5 ouncesBaby B/girl: 2 pounds 11 ouncesBaby C/boy: 2 pounds 10 ounces

We are thrilled that they continue to gain weight and everything appears to be chuggin’ along at a healthy rate! If you add up all three weights, it is roughly 7 pounds, 10 ounces – plus the weight of each sac, placenta… This weight is much more than Quin’s birth weight of 7 pounds 3 ounces. Jason and I cannot express how happy we are that my body has been able to hold on with this extra weight!

Thanks again for all of your positive thoughts! Enjoy the sun – it is streaming in my windows. Who could ask for more! Joelee

We are so glad to read the good news. I was just trying to explain to my 23 month old that you were going to have 3 babies...he just looked at me like "what, mama?".

The Triplets - Born at 30 Weeks

About Me

Jason and I have been married for thirteen years. Our oldest daughter, Quin, turned five on March 5. Our triplets (Ellery, Gianna and Easton) were born at exactly 30 weeks on January 29, 2009 (they are now four years old). I also teach first grade. My life is full and busy, and I wouldn't want it any other way!
